The problem is not a specific set of traits they are looking for, but a fetishization of trans people. As per the analogy in the comic, they care more about a physical presentation or a sexualized concept than their actual desires. Objectification can be desired, but it shouldn't be the starting point or the default. For example, my girlfriend treats me like a sex object, but it's only after we've communicated our boundaries and desires. At any point, I can use a safe word and call an end to that. Chasers aren't interested in a mutual and respectful relationship, they see their porn fantasies embodied in a person.
